Ronseal - Does what it says on the tin!!
Clean and tidy. Staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. Bed comfy, room dark. Outside was pretty quiet too. Can't fault the hotel at all.

Good but not so good
The hotel is very convenient from the M1 but is very basic the food is not good at all and is frozen and then served. There was no soft drinks on tap we paid for breakfast and was told it is served from 6am when we came down for breakfast we was told it is only from 8am so we left as we was not going to wait 2 hours for food still no response from the hotel to offer a refund

3 day stay visiting family.
Booked here to be near a family gathering, little bit concerned with reviews and it being on an industrial estate with noise etc . On arrival Emma on reception was very welcoming and was throughout our stay nothing was a problem for her and rest of staff.
We were very pleased with the room, it was clean tidy and spacious enough for our 3 nights stay, the hotel was quiet and we didn’t hear any noise. We didn’t use a lot of the facilities as we were out the hotel each day visiting family and local attractions.
This is a budget hotel and was better than we expected.
Would we stay again? Yes definitely. Many thanks to all staff

I only stopped off on my way down the motorway to Milton Keynes but the hotel was easy to find , straight off the motorway, check in was easy too, room was fine for a short stop off. I was up and out early in the morning and was told breakfast didn’t start until 8am which was a bit disappointing as many travellers will use the hotel as a stop off on a long journey. I asked at reception if I could have any food earlier than that and she said she’d see what she could do . I came down at 7.30 and th lovely reception lady had been left a note of my room number and I was then given a full English breakfast by the chef which I have to say was absolutely delicious, then the chef came out with more fresh items as they were cooked for me. It was wonderful customer service that I didn’t expect, it made my morning and set me up for the lond day ahead

Ibis Rugby East
Great value for money. A bit remote - no restaurants/shops nearby. Comfortable bed and good size room. Friendly staff. Unfortunately the taps in the bar were not working - only bottled stuff available. Breakfast good although not all options (mushrooms, eggs) available at time of selection. Only 1 two slice domestic toaster available for 30 odd guests! Evening food very good value.

Very basic and not family-friendly at all
I was impressed there was air conditioning as it made all of the difference on a balmy summers' evening.
Wasn't so taken with the decor and it reminded me of a budget bachelor pad but it was clean and tidy.
Pillows felt like they were full of air and we only had two towels.
What struck me as really strange was the hand-soap holder was so high up on the bathroom wall above the sink that my seven year old couldn't reach so he had to wash his hands with shower gel.
We got one half of a toilet roll for the whole stay (had to plod down to reception when it tan out!) and two pouches of coffee and two sugars which amounted to one single drink for myself.
I would expect a good half-a-dozens' worth in a hotel like this.
The door locking system is troublesome and when we returned from breakfast we were locked out of our room for 20 mins as the card system failed.
Four attempts later by different staff with different cards and the door was unlocked.
Ok as a base-only, but wouldn't recommend as much more.
